Is that the official Sony ftf? Will a phone recieve official Sony updates after doing that? What would happen to any apk that was installed on rooted Z1 after flashing lollipop?

You can download your firmware directly from Sony with XperiFirm ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/pc-xperifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-t2834142 ) and then repack to ftf with flashtool.

Firmware
I tried much but failed to find kitkat or higher
You're on the latest available software for your device (C6606). It seems that T-Mo aren't interested in the C6606 any more and won't approve updates for it.
I've seen around the forum that some people have flashed the C6616 firmware to their C6606 with success. You could try that. I'm not sure if you would lose any T-Mo features like wifi calling though and it's obviously at your own risk. Nothing should go wrong though.
If you want to try, you can download and flash the latest C6616 firmware (10.6.A.0.454) by following my guide - How to package and flash stock roms in FTF format
Firmware
Thanks @kingvortex i dnt want any t mobile app at all but the flashing will support official sony updates? And c6606 is compatible with c66016 stock firmware?

Most people have found it better to do a clean flash when upgrading to Lollipop, so it's probably best to backup your apps and reinstall after flashing. Apart from that you shouldn't have problems if you follow my guide.
Clean
I dnt want any data i want a perfect stock rom only thats become possible only because of you thanks i will message u tonight
flash tool
@kingvortex buddy hery is something i didnt get http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
(WARNING : Since Xperia Z, sony added a new set of files I called bootbundle. Those files can be bundled from 0.9.13 and can be flashed from 0.9.13 only. To all those flashing devices from Z edition to all after Z, it is highly advised to use 0.9.13 and to be sure FTF you flash contain the bootbundle set. I've been reported of hard bricks because of missing such set of files from bundles.) copied from there
what is this thing ?? and download link for flash tool there are to many links on that page
Just use the latest version. You can download it from here. I suggest downloading via torrent if you can as it's the fastest way.

How did you actually get 5.0.2 installed to your phone after you flashed 6616? Did you use PC companion or do an OTA update?
Thanks ahead of time.

Thanks a lot dude. Would've been stuck on 4.3 for I dunno how long if it weren't for you.
So since I updated to 5.0.2 a couple days ago I can't seem to use mobile network for internet access. Only wifi works. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Did you try downloading Internet settings? It's under Settings -> Wireless & network -> More -> Internet settings.
Guys, this is Indian Customized Lollipop Stock Rom 5.0.2 for our Xperia ZR C5502.
Flash it with Flashtool software as you flash any other STOCK ROM. Google for tutorials as many are available there.

Guys I think u can easily update it.
1.You can relock the bootloader using latest flashtool and update On The Air ( via OTA)
2.You can relock the bootloader using latest flashtool and update via PC Companion
3.Or you can download the whole package with unlocked bootloader from latest version of flashtool, There's a icon called [XF] which means Xperia Firms. Just select your <device<region<model and select download package then you can flash it.
Hope this helped. Happy Flashing:thumbup:

Have you activated STAMINA mode. If you have, WiFi shutting down is enforced when screen is off in order to save battery.
If you use Dose app or any similar for battery save they have this "limiting effect" on WiFi.
